Trump and his whole gang need to be held accountable.

Personally, I think the Trump perp walk is going to be great. I can't wait.

I'm sure it will be a ratings hit.

Nothing was done to them , and that caused the situation we're in now. It got a lot worse now from doing nothing to them. Hopefully Biden learned from this.

President Biden will have to do a thing. The state courts in New York are on the job.

Now,it is the Inauguration funds. They already have witnesses who knew the corruption first hand. It will be a snowball of indictments.

The networks will see great rating showing the prosecutions of trump , his family, and all the other criminals involved in crimes they committed , and the American people will be glued to their tv's watching them finally have consequences for what they've done. Seeing him and others go to prison is a ratings gold mine waiting to happen. trump likes to claim the opposite of the truth to make his ego feel better.

this idiot to change a bit after all of these years. This entire mis-administration has been nothing but a ratings show. It's all about "ME" - he wants to be seen, he wants to have people watching what he does, he wants to be in front of every line and stage.
I'm fine with that.
Let him be the first one marched out of OUR White House with cuffs on - we promise we'll be watching!!

This grotesque reality TV show has been going on for 4x year long seasons that have felt like a nightmarish lifetime.

I look forward to the quiet restoring of ties with our long time allies around the globe.

I look forward to the non-sensational restoration of our reputation.

I look forward to the unreported restoration of the integrity of our Justice department and intel services.

I look forward to a Secretary of Education that isn't doing the most absurd of things to destroy educational opportunities for our youth and teachers.

I look forward to having cabinet members and POTUS appointments that aren't regularly in the news because they're actually doing their jobs.. without getting indicted and convicted.

I look forward to not having to pray in a way that no atheist should every time a news article comes out that mentions the indomitable supreme RBG's name. That woman deserves a huge monument to be erected in her image!

Oh yeah... time to shelve that series with a, hopefully, spectacular season finale come November-January.

You wind up in a Monty Python style "no it isn't, yes it is" type of argument. Meanwhile, the 25th amendment just sits there unused.
